Synagogue Architecture in America - Faith, Spirit & Identity

This book takes the reader on a fascinating journey that begins with the earliest inner-city places of worship and refuge for recently arrived and often persecuted immigrants, and chronicles the evolution of the synagogue into the thriving suburban neighbourhood centre of today. The superb illustrations in this book display the many incarnations of the American synagogue, from the oldest existing synagogue, to the present day, from architectural luminaries such as Frank Lloyd Wright.
